Mr. Waters\u2019 guest lecture will focus on the role of the British media during the campaign before the referendum held in the UK\u00a0in June 2016\u00a0on EU membership that led to Brexit. It has been widely acknowledged that the political stances of the British newspapers, most of which have right-wing and eurosceptic viewpoints, have influenced the thoughts and consequently the decisions of the electorate. The talk will therefore examine to what extent the UK’s mainstream media outlets were a key factor that contributed to the country’s withdrawal from the EU.<\/span><\/p>\n
